Solicitors in Caldicot

Caldicot sits on the Welsh side of the Severn crossings, and many residents work or buy property in the Bristol area. Homes in Caldicot are subject to the Welsh Land Transaction Tax and are let under the Renting Homes (Wales) Act. In contrast, properties purchased across the bridge fall under English Stamp Duty and tenancy law.

Caldicot is part of Monmouthshire, and legal cases involving the town are likely to be heard in Newport. The county and family court is situated at Clarence House, the Crown Court is located on Faulkner Road and the magistrates' court can be found on Usk Way.

The town experienced rapid growth after World War II due to the demand for housing for steelworkers, and much of the housing market consists of post-war estates and newer developments. Technology businesses along the M4 corridor bring commercial and employment work, and family law and wills and probate are in steady demand. Residents also use firms in nearby Chepstow, Newport and Cardiff.
